For example wireguard is supposed to be a simpler, easier alternative to OpenVPN but take a look at:-

It's horrible! It's do-able, I can understand all the stages but it's just not nice.
I don't honestly think that looks that bad, and it looks better than the average docs.
If you cast your mind back to reading the ssh man page, looking at ssh examples and trying to set up reverse tunnels (is this the right way round?) that was also quite bad I'm sure.
Is VPN *really* this difficult? If so I'll stay with my ssh approach.
I might well do the same but that's probably because we are both quite familiar with SSH not because it's any easier than wireguard.
